Do I need a GPU for my project?

A GPU is a computer chip that helps run demanding AI tasks. For a chatbot, you can often use a model that a provider already runs instead of renting your own GPU.

Read the explanation : Do I need a GPU for my project?
How much GPU memory do I need?

GPU memory, or VRAM, holds your model and the data it is working on. The amount you need depends on the model and how you run it.

Read the explanation : How much GPU memory do I need?
Why is the hourly price not the whole bill?

You may also pay for storage, data transfer and other resources. A rented machine can keep costing money when it is idle, depending on the provider.
